The opening exhibition was dedicated to displaying works by Mohammad Ehasai, Ardeshir Mohasses, Farideh Lashai, Faramarz Pilaram, Farah Osuli and many other veteran Iranian artists.

“Apart from my interest in art, this gallery was established with two specified aims: First, to recognize and introduce creative young artists who have had no opportunity to showcase their works, and second, to help charity events by art sales,” Eyvan Gallery director Huri Qavimi said during the opening ceremony of the gallery.

She said that all money raised by art shows at the gallery will go to charity.

“Discovering an emerging art talent, who deserves to be introduced, in a timely manner is a difficult task,” stated Qavimi, who has spent years searching Iranian and overseas galleries for emerging artists.

However, she added that her search has led to good results.

The gallery is located at 1 Hamid Dead End, off Lesani Alley, Jebheh St., off Mahdieh St., in the Elahieh neighborhood.
